PUNCH INVENTORS ATTORNEY Patented Feb. 27, 1934 UNITED STATES PUNCH Wesly F. .iurey and Austin W. Jurey, Norcatur, Kans.

This invention relates to punching tools, and its general object is to provide a. tool primarily designed for refacing cream separator skimming disks or cups, by making new spacing teats thereon, or renewing the old ones which get out of shape and become worn, with the result it is not necessary to install new disks from time to time as they become unbalanced, as the old ones can be refaced by the use of my tool and thereby be eificiently used for a prolonged period of time.

A further object of the invention, is to provide a punching tool for refacing cream separator skimming disks that is adjustable so as to vary the height of the teats and can be used in an easy and expeditious manner with minimum effort.

Another object of the invention is to provide a tool of the character set forth, that is simple in construction, inexpensive to manufacture and extremely efficient in use, operation and service.

This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

In describing our invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing wherein like characters denote like or corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which:

Figure l is a side view of the tool which forms the subject matter of the present invention.

Figure 2 is a fragmentary top plan view thereof.

Figure 3 is an enlarged fragmentary side view with parts broken away and in section.

Figure 4 is a view of a cream separator skimming disk that has been refaced by our tool.

Referring to the drawing in detail, the reference numeral 1 indicates the base of our tool, and which has formed therewith and rising therefrom a collar 2, the latter having secured therein the lower end of a pedestal 3 which may be hollow as shown, but in any event has secured to its upper end an arcuate arm 4 which is tapered toward its free end as best shown in Figure 3. The arcuate arm has its free end materially re: duced and terminates in a punch head 5 that is disposed substantially at right angles to the arm. Pivotally secured to the arcuate arm 4 and preferably adjacent its connection with the pedestal 3 is the angle bent portion 6 of a shank 7 which has formed with its outer end a jaw head 8, the latter being provided with a threaded bore 9 that extends therethrough and arranged in the path of the punch head 5 for a purpose which will be presently apparent.

Threadedly secured in the bore 9 is a plug 10 that is provided with a kerf 11, so that it can be easily adjusted through the instrumentality of a screw driver or the like, to vary the depth of the working portion of the bore, as we suggested in Figure 3.

The angle bent portion 6 of the shank '7 has formed therewith the handle 12 of our tool, and it will be noted that the handle has its outer or free end b nt upon itself to provide a hand gripping portion 13. The portion 6 is preferably enlarged and provided with a slot for the passage of the arm 4 therethrough, as shown From the above description and disclosure of the drawing, it will be obvious that our tool is designed primarily for refacing cream separator skimming disks or cups, and in the use of our tool the disk which for distinction is indicated by the reference numeral A is positioned as shown in dotted lines in Figure 1, and the old teats thereof are reshaped or new teats are provided thereon, it depending solely upon the condition of the old teats, but in any event the disk after being refaced is again capable of performing its intended function for a prolonged period of time, therefore it will not be necessary to renew disks as they become worn or unbalanced, which of course will result in great saving to the operators of cream separators.

It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of our invention will be readily apparent.

We desire it to be understood that we may make changes in the construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts, provided that such changes fall within the scope of the appended claims.

What we claim is:

1. A tool comprising a base, a pedestal secured to and rising therefrom, an arcuate arm secured to the upper end of said pedestal, a punch head formed with said arm and disposed at an angle with respect thereto, a jaw head having a bore arranged therein, means for adjusting the depth of the working portion of the bore, a shank formed with said jaw head and being pivotally secured to the arm, and a handle formed on the shank for operating the jaw head in cooperation with the punch head.

2. A tool for refacing cream separator skimming disks and comprising an arm, means for supporting said arm and holding the same stationary, punch means on said am, a jaw head of the arm therethrough, and a handle formed cooperating with the punch means and having a on the angle portion to operate the jaw head bore therein, means for adjusting the depth of for disposing the bore thereof in cooperation with WESLY F. JUREY. AUSTIN W. JUREY.
